Longwear Makeup Must-Haves

It can be so frustrating to look in the mirror halfway through the day and see your makeup has gone patchy, is slipping off your face or has just disappeared. Keep your makeup looking pristine all day with our selection of the best longwear makeup around.

It all starts with the right base and this primer needs just a pearl sized amount over the face to help protect your skin, hydrate and smooth before your makeup. It helps keep your makeup looking its best.

Stains are the perfect way to achieve a pop of colour that stays around. We love this one from theBalm because the powder formula makes it so simple to apply; much easier than the usual liquids and serums.

Opting for a cream shadow seems counter intuitive if you don't want it to slide, but the smudge-proof formula from Benefit's Cream Shadow means that it sets down and stays all day. We like to pat it on with our fingers and then use a fluffy brush to blend the edges before it sets.

We never forget about the brows here at Lookfantastic and this fab pomade from Ardell is an incredible formula for all day wear. Apply and blend; then it will set for the perfect finish all day long. No patchy brows here!

If you prefer a traditional lipstick, then look no further than the new MATTE'ificent lipsticks from Stila. They have an ultra-hydrating formula that doesn't feel drying on the lips, but colour that stays put.

Major fan of scented candles, Make Up brushes and Highlighter. I’m always on the hunt for those Holy Grail products and my dressing table is covered in more beauty products than I like to admit. As an adopted Northerner originally from Brighton, I spend most my days wondering what all this rain is about. My hair isn’t grateful for the move.
